The semi-arid zones of the world are fragile ecosystems which are
being sub stantially modified by the activities of mankind.
Increasing human populations have resulted in greater demands on
semi-arid zones for providing human susten ance and the possibility
that this may enhance desertification is a grave concern. These
zones are harsh habitats for humans. The famines that resulted from
drought during the late 1960's and the 1970's in the African Sahel
illustrated the unreliability of present agricultural systems in
this zone. Large fluctuations in ag ricultural production have
occurred in semi-arid zones of Australia, North Ameri ca, and the
Soviet Union due to periodic droughts, even though considerable ag
ricultural technology has been devoted to agricultural development
in these zones. The challenge to mankind is to manage these
different semi-arid zones so that pro ductivity is increased and
stabilized, and environmental deterioration is decreased.
Irrigation can be used to increase and stabilize agricultural
production in semi-arid zones as discussed in Volume 5 of this
series, Arid Zone Irrigation. The present volume, Agriculture in
Semi-Arid Environments, focuses on dryland farming in semi-arid
zones, and is relevant to the large areas of the world where
rainfall is limiting and where water is not available for
irrigation. This volume is designed to assist agricultural
development in these areas and consists of reviews and analyses of
available information by scientists working in Africa, Australia,
and at the U ni versity of California."
Letters From Your Future is the winner of the Independent
Publishers Evergreen Medal for World Peace. This prestigious award
is given to a book published between 2000 - 2013. The Letters Book
describes the series of spiritual contacts that took place shortly
after a life changing event in the life of the author. He states,
..". without provocation I would wake up night after night between
2 - 4 am with profound spiritual messages in my mind. The whispered
messages were about life, love, God, Spirit and Humanity. These
were deep over-powering thoughts and they were there waiting for
me. The thoughts were like the lyrics to a song that kept playing
over and over in my mind. Thoughts such as, "Fear is the opposite
of love. Fear will keep you from all that you desire to do and be
while here on earth. Love however, will enable you to surpass your
highest expectations." The Messengers that whispered into the
author's consciousness instructed him to write down the words they
would give him and make them into a book. He followed their
instruction and this is the book that is before you now. These are
instructional letters for Humanity. The Letters explain why certain
events happen in our lives and on our planet. The book goes on to
explain why some are here on earth at this time, but some of our
loved ones may have moved on and are now gone. The Letters describe
how life really works from their perspective in the spiritual realm
and how one can use these instructions to rebuild their lives and
their planet. The book talks of a unending love from our Creator
and a unparalleled unity created out of love for one another. The
Letters beautifully describe how to create our Heaven on Earth.
